Fertile Farming Districts Turning
Into Vast Desert.

CHICAGO, Aug. S.-A Chicago paper, sum-
ming up the many reports received by it of
the drought in Illinois and vicinity, says this
morning that there is tract of perhaps 75,-
900 square miles in the northwest where the
dust lies heavily upon the earth. The dis
trict is bounded by Madison on the north,
Bloomington on the south, Lake Michigan
on the east and the Mississippi river on the
west. 1t is within the limits Of these
boundaries that vegetation has lost its nor
NAL color and The earth its moisture. Leaves
are falling from the trees, grass in the
meadows has grown yellow and the brooks
are dry. 1t has been nearly ten weeks since
rain fell in this district and there is not
enough moisture in the ground to feed a
thistle.
In Southern Wisconsin there are thousands
OF acres where corn will not yield peck to
the acre. The crop has been scorched and
almost totally destroyed. Wells have run
dry and in some towns water famines are
imminent. Typhoid fever is becoming more
prevalent and dysentery and other stomach
diseases are so common in some places as to
amount almost to an epidemic.
Unless rain falls before many days the suf-
fering will be greatly augmented. Cattle
have become so emaciated as to be wholly
unmarketable. Hundreds of cows are being
killed and shipped to market for mere pitt
tance. Farmers in this district have already
turned their cattle loose to feed on the crops
Added to all the miseries attending the great
drought is the constant breaking out Of
forest fires. Should the drought remain un-
broken much longer incalculable ruin will be
wrought by the fires which spring up in un-
expected places and in the most mysterious
manner. In some parts Of the district the
drought is so terrible that the butternuts
and walnuts have fallen from the trees.
Potatoes when taken from their beds of
ashes look like crab apples.

LADIES DAY TODAY.
The Salems will play here again today.
As now organized they can give any club in
the league hard fight, and as they have won
three out of the last four played with the

game shouldn't be hot one. Ladies win be

Fitzgerald's pitching and Hamilton's bat
ting were too much for the champions yes
terday, and they were defeated, thereby
dropping below Lowell and taking second
place. Fitzgerald did wonderful work in the
box, and it is especially aggravating that he
should be able to do 1t against the champions
when he is not very effective against any of
the other clubs. But he did fine work yes
terday, and is deserving of credit for it. His
delivery was very effective, and the Port
lands consequently showed up very bad at
the bat. Hamilton, the visitors first base
man. did great work also, making safe hit
every time he came TO the bat, and bringing
in four Of the six runs made by the Salems.
He made within one of as many hits as the
whole Portland team, and they were put in
at just the right time Small was hit quite
freely, but only in the 7th were the hits
punched so as to count very much. The
fielding of both clubs was excellent. Dick
ers0n's two errors were made in the first in
ming, when he fumbled Rays grounder al
lowing him to reach first, and then threw
wild to Sch0eneck, Ray reaching second be-
fore the ball was returned. These errors
cost two runs, but did not effect the general
result
The visitors scored in the first inning. Ray
getting to second as above mentioned and
Hamilton bringing him in with home run
hit over the right field fence. In the third,
Campana hit safe, stole second aud scored
Oh Hamilton's single. In the 7th, after Fitz-
gerald was thrown out at first, Campana and
Ray hit safe. the former being forced out at
third by Donovan. Hamilton then hit TO
left for two bases, sending Ray home and
Donovan to third. The latter scored mo-
ment later on a wild pitch, and Hamilton
took third on the same error, scoring the
sixth and last run on hit by Burke.
The Portlands scored their first run in the
I'd. Galligan was hit by a pitched ball, stole
second and scored on Schoeneck's two-bag-
ger. In the 4th, Thayer hit the ball over the
left field fence for home run, scoring the
only earned run for Portland. In the 9th,
little excitement was created, Gallgan hit
ting to left field for two bases, and scoring
on a mnff by Hamilton of Campana's
throw, but Lufbery and Small went out be-
fore Schoeneck could get off first, and the
game was lost.
There were no especially brilliant features
except those above mentioned. The game
was exciting and interesting, but Fitzgerald's
tine pitching was rather dampening on the
friends OF the home club. Ryan, the new
man, uilpired, and was not brilliant sue-
cess, although he is an Improvement over
Rafferty,. Following is the score:
